Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Incomplete

Bug description:
After upgrading to Mythbuntu 10.04 beta, mythbackend doesn't work.

It's unable to connect to the database, because it can't find mysql.txt, I suppose because in the service mythbackend's context, either MYTHCONFDIR is not set, or HOME is not set.  Since I have a correct mysql.txt both in /etc/mythtv/ and in $HOME/.mythtv.

If I start mythbackend by hand in a terminal, it works fine.

It spews this continually:
